rio_dma_transfer() attempts to clamp the return value of
pin_user_pages_fast() to be >= 0. However, the attempt fails because
nr_pages is overridden a few lines later, and restored to the undesirable
-ERRNO value.
The return value is ultimately stored in nr_pages, which in turn is passed
to unpin_user_pages(), which expects nr_pages >= 0, else, disaster.
Fix this by fixing the nesting of the assignment to nr_pages: nr_pages
should be clamped to zero if pin_user_pages_fast() returns -ERRNO, or set
to the return value of pin_user_pages_fast(), otherwise.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
